Alex Rodriguez, photographed for the April issue of Details magazine by Steven Klein.
Hey, do you remember that A-Rod fellow? Plays third for the Yankees, ran into some scandal a few weeks ago then hurt his hip? Sound familiar at all? Just in case you hadn’t had enough of Alex Rodriguez, here comes the latest — an interview with Details magazine that confirms more of what we already knew; the guy absolutely doesn’t get it.
Start with the bizarre photos — did he really have to kiss his own reflection? Then you get to details like A-Rod calling up the interviewer because he was worried about revealing what his favorite Madonna song was. The day he worried about this just happened to be right after Selena Roberts confronted him with the steroids accusation. Guess now we know why he didn’t tell anyone on the Yankees about that, he was worried the world would learn that loves “Borderline”.
In the interview Rodriguez also says that he occasionally rides the subway to the stadium in a hoodie (does anyone believe that), "I've taken the subway to the stadium. For night games. The day to do it is a Friday, because traffic is horrible." There's also a priceless quote from his manager, "He really hasn't had the chance to show people who he really is."





Well, you know that he is living in a material world...
Thank you, Brian Cashman, for making ARod part of my world.
is it just me or did you immediately think "gay" when you saw that photo?
(not that there is anything wrong with that)
GAYrod-he's all yours Yankees fans! ENJOY!
GayRod = Brilliant!
Gay-Roid
captain obvious
Actually, I immediately thought narcissist.
i suddenly get the feeling a terribly misguided PR firm is behind all of this... as if signing the biggest contract in sports history wasn't good enough. he had to be higher profile, no matter how!
Can we petition Wikipedia to use this picture for the Narcissism entry?
Or for the "don't do everything the photographer tells you to do" entry.
And to think this putz opted out of his contract and the Yankees brought him back and gave him a raise!
i suppose after the smooch he'll saunter over to the mattress there and start rodding himself from behind
is he kissing himself?
He is indeed kissing himself.
Well, it could be interpreted as that he's staring himself down. Going eye-to-eye, chin-to-in, with that tough guy A-Rod. That'd probably be the best thing for a photographer to say if they want to get that shot.
That looks very gay!
Not that there's anything wrong with that....
Gayest. Picture. Ever.
Ummm..ok.
aw, c'mon. if some chick were in the exact same pose, people would just say it was hot.
it's not hot.
That depends on the chick.
And you would berate them as 'sexist'.
yeah, exactly! :)
I like "borderline" too. Damn A-rod for making that song wack now.
I think I speak for most Met fans when I say, thank you Steve Phillips!
O.k. I think the pic is Borderline Gay!! It'd be all the way Gay w/ a thought bubble of a mental note to snatch up the "Sex and the City" directors cut DVD while supplies last!! LMAO!!
No borderline about it!
he doesn't take the subway... he's to much of a primadonna (pun intended) for that.
Lenny Dyskstra would called A-Rod faggy.
anyone else getting a chubby or is it just me?
It's just you.
And maybe A-Rod.
I wonder if Yogi Berra ever did anything like this back in the day. Someone should ask him.
No one has mentioned to mattress in the background. What's up with that?
This pic is WRONG on so many levels ...
Madonna vs A-Rod
